A total of 7 acts competed in tonight’s heat in a bid to qualify to the grand final of the competition on the 12 March. Out of the 7 participants, 2 acts qualified directly to the final whilst a further 2 acts progressed through to the Andra Chansen (Second Chance) round of the contest. The remaining 3 acts were eliminated from the selection.

Following the first round of voting, After Dark (7th) and Swingfly feat. Helena Gutarra (6th) placed in the bottom 2 and were therefore eliminated from the contest with the remaining 5 acts entering a second round of voting. The public vote went as follows:
